MOVED by Chairperson S Hawke, seconded by Member R Blair:  

That the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board:

c)      delegate decision making responsibility to the Technical Officer of Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Whai Maia Ltd for amending point 2 and the map of the concessionaire guidelines and determining a minor reconfiguration of the fence line, redesign of the fence style and other ancillary landscaping matters to accommodate concessionaires in the vicinity of the tourism kiosk

d)      request that the future fence design should continue to act as a barrier to vehicles while being visually unobtrusive and providing for easy/barrier free pedestrian access onto the Whenua Rangatira
